Survivor — Poor Man's Son lyrics
The page contains the lyrics of the song "Poor Man's Son" by Survivor.
Lyrics
Baby if you really love me You had better understand
That the silver in your pocket
Ain’t no measure of a man
We aspire to rise above
When you’re born into a breed
You’re signed in blood*
Workin' all night long
Got a bad guitar
And a simple song
You’re a rich mans daughter
Look at what you’ve done
You went and fell in love
With a poor mans son**
Baby you were born in splendor
To a house of wealth and fame
Your mother was a spender
And you grew up on a stage
And girl you coulda loved for money
Coulda fooled around for fame
You went and took a chance
On the real thing
